McNulty (also spelled MacNulty or McAnulty) is a surname of Irish origin. It is derived from the Gaelic ''Mac an Ultaigh'' meaning "son of the Ulsterman". Usually considered a branch of the Ulaid ruling dynasty of ''Mac Duinnshléibhe'' ( MacDonlevy), a branch of Dál Fiatach, who fled Ulaid to Ailech after the former's conquest in 1177 by the Normans. DNA analysis points to descent from other Ulaid families as well. After the Battle of Kinsale in 1602, some McDonlevys and McNultys migrated to the province of Connacht where their name is now also common.

The name is said to have arisen from a branch of the ruling Ulaid dynasty of ''Mac Duinnshléibhe'' (Mac Donlevy) who had migrated to what is now

's conquest of Ulaid in 1177. Here some of the MacDonlevys were nicknamed ''Ultagh/Ultach''. However, historical records such as the 1659 "Census" as well as Griffith's Valuation (1848-1864) show that concentrations of McNultys were found in parts of Ireland where the MacDonlevys had little presence, coupled with DNA analysis showing that the McNultys may actually derive from other Gaelic families that migrated from Ulaid and not just the MacDonlevy's. The names ''Ultagh/Ultach'' and ''Mac an Ultaigh'' applied to only those that fled Ulaid and was not used for those that remained. Regardless of their actual origin, the first McNulty to be recorded is found in the

. The probable transition of the name ''Mac an Ultaigh'' from the Ultagh MacDonlevy's can be seen around 1601 where one "Morris Ultagh" is recorded as "Morris m'Nich Ultagh". The surname prefix "m'Nich" appears to be an English confusion of the female prefix ''Nic'' with the male prefix ''Mac''. Other variant spellings of McNulty include McNaulty, McNalty, and rarely as O'Nalty, (anglicized from Irish "Ónultaċáin", at Mac Duinnshléibhe) Nolty, McNult, McEnulty and McKnulty. and others. In
